    I'm studying architecture and I highly doubt I'll get work experience (have already tried and tried). Does does this mean i fail the whole course or just the module ?? I know this is the same situation for alot of people.

    Assuming you're doing a full Level 5 award, work experience is a compulsory module which means, if you don't get it, you won't pass the module and you won't get your full award. You will get credit for the modules you pass though.

    What Nadser says is true, however it is sometimes possible for the college to help you with a creative solution, talk to your work experience teacher and see if he/she has any suggestions, don't let it just slip by looking as though you are just not bothered. For example, you only need 10 weeks, is it possible that when someone else has done their 10 weeks you could 'share' (ie, take over)that position? You would have to move fairly quickly after Christmas to organise it though.
